I AM THE GOD WHO HEALS YOU (p2, continued)

We were back recently at the hospital not so much for the scheduled regular check-up (after the second open heart surgery last February) but, to write another line about the goodness and wonderful gift of our FATHER in healing my husband, in our family storybook, to be read, even by those who need to find HIS Love-manifest. This family storybook to be kept here and remembered even beyond this material world. As a person I tend to be reserved and private, I'm not one who frequently posts photos especially of my family, on social media except when it comes to sharing HIS Love. I asked myself several times when I snapped these shots, what's the use of keeping these photos ? Well they tell an incredible story of a hospital ward (cardiology) and ICU full of highly-specialized and brilliant medical teams, beautiful, extra-ordinary people, who performed their jobs professionally but never once heard anyone mention about GOD, much more the GOD Who heals. On the contrary I once heard a young doctor or intern say she doesn't believe that there is a GOD. On this day, the heart surgeon acknowledged it was The FATHER Who wanted (in this doctor's own term 'voluto' in italian lingo) him (my husband) to live.

My husband stayed for two months in the cardiology ward and almost two months in the ICU and finally two months in the physical rehabilitation center between the months of February and July. The ICU ward of Umberto I Polyclinic Hospital of Rome is actually what I can consider a heaven of a medical workplace /environment because every nurse or doctor treats his/her colleague like his/her own sister/brother, with matching warm hugs and jovial kisses as if they haven't seen each other for a long time. More than that,they treat each patient like his/her own brother, and they relate to them as if they're not 'sick' or in the ICU as they always smile and make light encouraging jokes to uplift the patients' spirit, except that they have to carry on treating them in the sense of operating state-of-the-art medical life-support machines to cure the patients. They also talked to and updated the families of patients in both a kind and professional manner when it's visiting time. They perform their duties in a very coordinated manner, like , when it's needed they promptly send for specialists to treat the patient,even blood test results are obtained quickly.

The truth that I want to drive through, is that through these experiences, I understand that healing is a process essentially initiated by GOD. As can be said, in 1 Corinthians 3:6 "I (Paul speaking) planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but GOD has been making it grow. So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only GOD, Who makes things grow. " If I may add,in my husband's health,it's only GOD Who makes things re-grow! GOD used these doctors and nurses in the process of healing,not that HE can't heal supernaturally which HE continuously does for us until now, but sometimes our faith doesn't measure up to HIS Heart ever Willing to make us well.
In Matthew 13:23 "Then seed (The WORD) falling on good soil (heart) refers to someone who hears The WORD and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop,yielding a hundred,sixty or thirty times what was sown.

So in this passage of the WORD of GOD (The Holy Bible) I realize even more this process of and. growth in faith and healing And so I think HE meets us at our own level,but never abandoning or forsaking.NEVER! Praise The LORD!

It is human nature to show off what we have on the outside like materially, financially and status-wise and though I share the feeling, most of the time I realize, ultimately it's not what really makes you, or your life. It's WHO you know that makes you and your life. GOD BLESS you Tremendously. I hope you're blessed by my message today. Remember always, GOD Loves you so much that HE gave HIS Only Begotten SON that if you believe in HIM, you will not perish but have everlasting (John 3:16) He is as close to you as your own breath,as present as your own thought.HE is waiting to hear from you in prayer.

We attended the celebration of Philippine Independence Day last June 12, at Manila Square here in Rome, and we enjoyed so much not only all the typical Filipino delicacies (mostly for free, just like in a town 'Fiesta'), but also the company of all the filipinos in that highly festive occasion where the TFC channel also held a show hosted by Pokwang and Randy Santiago.But we weren't able to watch anymore as we left before their arrival, late in the afternoon.We didn't want to expose our little daughter to too much sun. But it was the first time we attended the Philippine Independence Day here in Rome. It was also funny to see some foreigners, muslim-looking and also Italians appreciating our festivities and our food. There were many different booths set-up to promote varied services like Filipino real estate companies,Filipino Banking institutions, legal assistance, food stands etc. There was also the 'halo-halo' under the heat of the sun--:The most surprisin…

This is the actual image at the very center of our universe,found at the core of the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51) Not long ago, a certain very young Pastor Louise who himself also, is a NASA/space enthusiast- preached in Spain about the incomprehensible enormity of our universe. It was a very eloquent message,very well explained and accompanied by his own actual visual collections from NASA. He articulately (however hard he tried to..) showed the vastness of GOD (more than that, the vastness of GOD's Love for us) . ...consider, at 60,000 or 70,000 ft. above the sealevel, all structures on earth's surface would hardly be visible through the naked eye, lowfast lamborghinis or ferraris, jetplanes,villas and mansions, the most luxurious malls and most importantly-people would seem inexistent. If you travel farther,beyond our own solar system or even outside our Milky Way galaxy, the Earth would seem to be only a dot.And men, you or me would be insignificant(or seemingly inexistent) size…

We celebrated our sixth year wedding anniversary yesterday at Hard Rock Cafe' at the Rome tourist belt area.Of course Italy is known for its delightful and fat-free cuisine but due to budget constraints we opted not for a fine dining.But the entire day was blessed with cheers and simple fatty dishes by Hard Rock but nevertheless served with kindness and sweetness by the young and handsome waiter.That is also good enough to make up for what might still be lacking to call it a memorable wedding anniversary.We were with my girlfriend Lala with whom I was teasing Alessandro our waiter just for fun.We finished our dinner with yet another greasy dessert hot fudge brownies.After that,we proceeded with some photoshoot outside the restaurant.As the American embassy is just a stone's throw away from Hard Rock, I also had my photo taken with it in the background.Well there's one more reason to Praise My GOD today.
